MAX 2026

[Bobby Parker]

I spent the day yesterday trying to troubleshoot why MAX 2026 kept crashing. I reinstalled Windows today and went through the plugins one by one, and everything was good until I installed RailClone and/or Forest Pack Pro. Now, when I launch MAX, after a few seconds, it freezes, and I have to kill it.

Hi Bobby,

I'm sorry to hear that you're facing these troubles. Please feel free to download the Process Explorer https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer and, during the freeze, locate the "3dsmax.exe" process. Once you've selected it, go to Process > Create Dump > Create Minidump..., save the file, compress it, and send it to us. Hopefully, this will help us identify the source of the problem.

Thank you in advance for any further comments regarding this issue that you can share with us or our user community (in case some users encounter similar problems).

Best regards,

[Bobby Parker]

Will do, thank you!
